Mean RNFL thickness | − 0.420 | 0.002 | − 0.449 | < 0.001 | 0.2372 | 0.8125 |
BMO-MRW | − 0.245 | 0.019 | − 0.345 | < 0.001 | 0.7275 | 0.4669 |
BMO-MRW = Bruch’s membrane opening minimum rim width; IOP = intraocular pressure; LCCI = lamina cribrosa curvature index; LCD = lamina cribrosa depth; RNFL = retinal nerve fiber layer.
All values < 0.05 at Pearson correlation analysis are presented in boldface.
The u value more than 1.96 (P < 0.05) was considered to be statistically significant.
